What does Static Fluid mean?
The word “statics” is derived from Greek word
“statikos”= motionless
• Surface Force

The Basic Equations of Fluid Statics
• Body Force
• Surface Force
• Total Force
• Newton’s Second Law
Pascal’s Laws
Pascals’ laws:
– Pressure acts uniformly in all directions on a small
volume (point) of a fluid
– In a fluid confined by solid boundaries, pressure
acts perpendicular to the boundary – it is a normal
force.

Measurement of Pressure
Manometers are devices in which one or more
columns of a liquid are used to determine the
pressure difference between two points.
– U-tube manometer
– Inclined-tube manometer
Measurement of Pressure Differences
Apply the basic equation of static fluids to
both legs of manometer, realizing that
P2=P3.
P2 Pa b g ( Z m Rm )
P3 Pb b g ( Z m ) a gRm
Pa Pb gRm ( a b )
Inclined Manometer
• To measure small pressure differences need to magnify Rm
some way.

The net force due to pressure in the vertical direction is:
FB = F2- F1 = (Pbottom - Ptop) (DxDy)

Compressible fluid
• Gases are compressible i.e. their density varies with
temperature and pressure =P M /RT
– For small elevation changes (as in engineering
applications, tanks, pipes etc) we can neglect the
effect of elevation on pressure
– In the general case start from:

Constant Density Fluid in Rigid Rotation
When a rigid body rotation is achieved in a fluid, all shear
stresses vanish, and there is no deformation of fluid
elements. The fluid is at rest relative to the rotating
container with a hydrostatic pressure distribution.

First, calculate the weight of the dam (per unit width):
W=Vg=(2.5)(1000)(20)(40)(1)(9.8)=19.6106 (N)
The static pressure at a depth of y: P(y)=wgy
The total resultant force acting on the dam by the water pressure is:

Assume the load distribution under the dam is linear (it might not be linear if the soil
distribution is not uniform)
Therefore, the stress distribution can be written as
max min
(x)= min x

In order to reach equilibrium, both the sum of forces and
Free surface
the sum of moments have to balance to zero
The hydrostatic lift under the dam (as a result of the buoyancy induced by water seeping
under the dam structure) can induce as high as one half of the maximum
hydrostatic head at the heel of the dam and gradually decrease to zero at the other end.

That is lift ( w gh ) (0.5)(1000)(9.8)(30) 0.147 106 ( N )

Therefore, the effective compressive stress will only be 0.173(=0.32-0.147) 106 ( N ).
